The competition for graduate jobs is fierce

Competition for employment is high across the UK right now, but there are few areas that are as tough to get into as the graduate jobs sector. Hundreds of thousands of students have recently finished their degrees at universities across the country and they are all in competition for a limited number of jobs. This means that graduates have to do more than ever to ensure they stand out from the crowd and get their ideal job sooner rather than later.
